• Fletcher Hamilton : H.W. okay?

  Daniel Plainview : No, he isn't.

• [They stand at a map] 

  Paul Sunday : This is us, here. Spur Station, here at Little Boston. The Sunday ranch is what you're looking for. There's a sheep trail that takes you there. It's a mile out of town, headed west, not far. Just through a small pass here, near the base of the hills. You'll pass a church, and just follow the sheep trail.

  Daniel Plainview : Where's Standard buying up?

  Paul Sunday : [pointing at map]  Here, and here.

  Daniel Plainview : And your family name is Sunday, yes?

  Paul Sunday : That's right.

  Daniel Plainview : How many's in your family?

  Paul Sunday : My father and mother and sisters, and my brother, Eli.

  H.W. Plainview : How many sisters do you have?

  Paul Sunday : Two.

  Daniel Plainview : What's your name?

  Paul Sunday : Paul.

  Fletcher Hamilton : Does any of your family know about the oil that you say is there?

  Paul Sunday : I don't know. Uh, my uncle always said there was oil there, but I don't know what they heard or what they think.

  Fletcher Hamilton : What do you grow?

  Paul Sunday : It's goats. Uh, it's a goat farm. I told you, nothing grows but weeds.

  Fletcher Hamilton : Is there water?

  Paul Sunday : It's salty. You drill a well, it's hard not to get salt water. The oil is there. I'm telling you. I want to go now, so...

  Daniel Plainview : Uh, you can stay tonight.

  Paul Sunday : No, I want to go now. I wanna leave.

  Daniel Plainview : Listen, Paul... If I travel all the way up there and I find that you've been lying to me, I'm gonna find you, and I'm gonna take more than my money back. Is that all right with you?

  Paul Sunday : Yes, sir.

  Daniel Plainview : All right then.

  Paul Sunday : Nice luck to you and God bless.

  Daniel Plainview : And to you, young man.

• Daniel Plainview : [Paul Sunday has offered to sell Plainview information]  Why'd you come to me?

  Paul Sunday : You just brought this well in?

  Daniel Plainview : That's right.

  Paul Sunday : Yes, so just give me five hundred dollars in cash, right now, and I'll tell you where it is.

  Daniel Plainview : I'll tell you what I'll do, son. I'll give you a hundred dollars now and, if it proves to be a promising lease, then give a thousand dollar bonus...

  Paul Sunday : Six hundred dollars.

  Daniel Plainview : Just tell me one thing to help me decide. What else have you got up there. What do you grow?

  Paul Sunday : We have a big ranch, but it's mostly rocks. We can plant things; nothing will grow but weeds. What makes you think it's up?

  Fletcher Hamilton : Is there sulfur around, or alkali deposits?

  Paul Sunday : Alkali, nearby. I don't know sulfur.

  Paul Sunday : I come from a town called Little Boston, in Isabella County.
